India To Launch GSAT-5P In October[/size]

Aug 25, 2010
By Anantha Krishnan M.

BENGALURU, India — The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is gearing up to launch the 2,000-kg. GSAT-5P communication satellite in October using a Geostationary Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV), an ISRO official tells AVIATION WEEK.

"Configured as an exclusive C-band communication satellite, GSAT-5P will carry 12 normal C-band transponders and six extended C-band transponders with wider coverage in uplink and downlink over Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe as well as zonal coverage," the official says. "The spacecraft has a mission life of 12 years and [is] planned to be launched onboard GSLV-F06."

The satellite is expected to expand existing telecommunication and television bandwidth. A Russian cryogenic engine will be powering the GSLV-F06; ISRO plans to launch a GSLV with an Indian-made cryogenic engine within a year. Meanwhile, former ISRO chief Madhavan Nair said in Bengaluru Aug. 22 that through combined efforts, India might launch a manned mission to the Moon by 2021.

"There are a lot of mysteries and hypotheses on the origin of the Moon, and probing into these could possibly throw light on the origin of the Earth, Solar System and even the universe," he says. "Helium-3, emitted from the Sun and found on the Moon, could end the fossil fuel crisis in the future, though we need to do lot of explorations in this field."

ISRO to replace two ageing satellites in December[/size]

CHENNAI: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) plans to replace two of its ageing satellites with new ones by December, an official said on Thursday.

The agency is planning to send in space two rockets for the purpose.

First to fly towards the heavens will be ISRO's heavy rocket - the geosynchronous satellite launch vehicle (GSLV) - sometime during the second week of December carrying a communication satellite GSAT 5 - intended to replace the ageing INSAT 2E.

"The INSAT 2E was launched in 1999 and is nearing the end of its life. The GSAT 5 with 36 transponders will be its replacement. Further, the new satellite is also expected to fill the void created by the partial failure of INSAT 4B," ISRO's director (publications and public relations) S. Satish said.

Earlier this year, ISRO lost 50 percent of the INSAT-4B's transponder capacity (12 transponders) owing to a power snag.

The GSLV rocket is being readied at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota around 80 km from here.

ISRO officials, not wanting to be identified, told IANS a small snag was detected in one of the GSLV rocket's sub-systems. The component is being replaced after extensive testing.

Officials said the rocket's first stage is ready and other stages are being readied and the satellite weighing around 2,300 kg is expected to arrive at the launch centre sometime next month.

"The rocket assembling activity at the second launch pad will continue till Oct 25. Between that date and November, no assembling work will be carried out as the period is prone to cyclones," an official told IANS.

India to launch advanced communication satellite Dec 20[/size]

CHENNAI: India will Dec 20 launch the advanced GSAT-5P communication satellite that will replace the ageing INSAT 2E and ensure continuity of telecom and television services, an official said.

"The launch window will open at 1600 hours on Dec 20," Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) director (publications and public relations) S. Satish told IANS.

Carrying the 2,300 kg GSAT-5P with 36 transponders, India's heavy rocket - the geosynchronous satellite launch vehicle (GSLV) - will blast off from ISRO's second launch pad at Sriharikota, around 80 km from here between 4 and 4.30 p.m.

According to officials, the fully assembled rocket was moved to the launch pad and anchored there Sunday morning around 7.45 a.m. The satellite was placed inside the heat shield last week.

ISRO officials told IANS that the process of filling the liquid and cryogenic fuel will begin around 30 hours before the actual flight when the countdown begins.

Prior to the countdown, ISRO will test the rocket's various systems. Its full systems test will be done Monday (Dec 13).

According to ISRO officials, the launch rehearsal will be held on Dec 17 but without the liquid and cryogenic fuel.

"If satisfied with the rocket's condition then the final clearance for the flight will be given. Then the rocket will be `armed'- connecting of all pyro systems to the batteries - so that they ignite when the command is given," said an ISRO official.

Isro to launch its fifth satellite in GSAT series[/size]
Praveen Bose / Bangalore December 18, 2010, 0:36 IST

Mission to increase transponder capacity by great extent.

A communication satellite — GSAT-5 Prime — is set to be launched aboard the Geo-Synchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV-F06) at 4 pm on December 20. The 30-hour countdown to the launch will begin on December 19. The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) is terming it a crucial mission, as it will greatly boost India's transponder capacity.

This is the fifth satellite to be launched in the GSAT series. The exclusive communication satellite will augment the communication services presently provided by the Indian National Satellite (INSAT) system. The satellite will be launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR, Sriharikota.

GSLV-F06 has three stages, with the first core stage powered by solid propellants. There are four strap-on booster motors, fuelled by liquid propellants, strung around the first stage. The second stage uses an engine powered by liquid propellants. The third upper cryogenic stage is from Russia. The GSAT-5P has a lift-off weight of 2,310 kg.

The Russian cryogenic stage being used is more powerful than those used in the previous GSLV missions. This is the sixth GSLV mission that will use a Russian cryogenic engine. The GSLV weighs 418 tonnes and is 51 metres long.

During the 30-hour countdown, the second stage and strap-on boosters will receive the liquid propellants beginning T-minus 30 hours, the cryogenic propellants — liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen that are at extremely low temperatures — will be pumped into the upper Russian cryogenic stage only from T-minus six hours.

S Satish, director of Publications and Public Relations, Isro, told Business Standard, the GSAT-5P will "provide a continuity to services offered by the INSAT system". It has 36 transponders, including 24 C-band transponders and 12 extended C-band ones. The transponders are expected to aid in telecasting television programmes, and also help in the delivery of telemedicine and tele-education. It will also boost the telephonic services. The GSAT-5P weighing 2,310 kg at lift-off will carry 24 normal C-band and 12 extended C-band transponders.

This will also be the heaviest payload to be launched by a GSLV. The launch mission will last 1,140 seconds, and at the end of it the cryogenic stage will inject the GSAT-5P into orbit. ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore, has built the GSAT-5P. The satellite is expected to have a mission life of 13.7 years.

GSLV rocket now taller, heavier[/size]

Chennai, December 17, 2010
First Published: 15:02 IST(17/12/2010)
Last Updated: 15:04 IST(17/12/2010)

India's geosynchronous satellite launch vehicle (GSLV), scheduled to blast off on Monday with an advanced communication satellite (GSAT-5P), is now taller by two metres and heavier by four tonnes as compared to its standard configuration. The Indian Space Research Organisation's standard configuration for the GSLV rocket is a height of 49 metres and 414 tonnes in weight at lift-off.

The rocket that would lift off Monday stands 51 metres tall and weighs 418 tonnes.

PS Veeraraghavan, director of the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, told IANS: "This time the fuel quantity for the cryogenic engine has increased and its thrust power has also gone up. The rocket will be carrying a heavier satellite (GSAT-5P) weighing 2,310 kg."

The Russian made cryogenic engine will be powered with 15.2 tonnes of fuel (liquid hydrogen as fuel and liquid oxygen as oxidizer), an increase of around three tonnes, and the engine's length has also increased.

The rocket has a bigger heat shield - four-metres in diameter and made of fibre reinforced plastic (FRP) - as compared to the standard configuration of 3.4-metre diameter made of aluminium alloy metal.

With the changes in rocket's configuration, necessary calibrations have been carried out in the rocket's navigational systems, control dynamics and aerodynamics so that the flight is smooth and the mission is successful, a source associated with ISRO told IANS.

Over the years, the carrying capacity of the GSLV has also increased -- from 1,530 kg in 2001 for GSAT-1 to 2,220 kg for GSAT-4 in April 2010.

The latest has a payload of 2,310 kg with 36 transponders -- an automatic receiver and transmitter of communication or broadcast signals. Successful launch of the satellite will take the agency's transponder capacity to around 235 from 200 in orbit now.
